Title: Rocky Coast, Fabian Hofmann
Name: Fabian Hofmann
Country: Germany
Software: Photoshop

This is my first attempt at matte painting. The image consists of four or five photographs I took at the french atlantic coast. The rocks in the foreground are assemled out of five photos to match perspective and composition. I also painted out several buildings, ships and corrected the lighting of the clouds because the sun was visible twice.

Critique appreciated!

nice matte, I really like the mood of it.
only crit I got is. I´m not quite sure about the perspective. I think the FG looks like splitted into 3 pieces.
( der mittlere teil kippt nach vorne , dort wo der einzelne Fels in der Mitte liegt. Während die seitenteile eine andere perspective haben. Ich hoffe du verstehst was ich meine :D )


but keep going :thumbsup:

thanks :)

you are right about the three pieces, although I tried to cover the obvious distortions with parts of other less distorted photos. The photos where take with a wide-angle lens and the result is some kind of supernatural distorted image. I wasn't sure if someone would notice :D
